Author Page Settings - Additional User Profile - Not Displaying

joecan

I am trying to use the Author Page Setting in the T4 Framework.
I am following the instructions on this page:

URL: https://www.joomlart.com/documentation/t4-framework/author-page-settings

On this page, it indicates that "fields are added to the User info tab..."

Additional user profile fields are added in the T4 Framework core, so all templates that built with T4 Framework will have the feature. In the user profile page, the fields are added to the User info tab, it includes:

However, after enabling the "User-Profile" plug the fields do not show up on the User Profile Page.

Any assistance would be greatfully appreciated.

Hi
Do you have 3rd party extension installed on your site with user type plugin kindly disable them so it use only from Joomla.
I tried to check this on your site but you site auto blocked my access on each step i login and go to plugins.

joecan

Yes, there are two plugins that also deal with the user profile:

AcyMailing - Subscriptions Sign Up Form
StackIdeas - Easydiscuss Profile

I will disable them and see how it goes.

joecan

You advice is correct.

This issue only happens when the Stackideas' EasyDiscuss user profile pluggin is enabled.

Should I start with them or you to see if the issue can be resolved?

Hi
You have to use Joomla user profile core views to get this option as its integration only with Joomla core and not with third party extension.

I do NOT want the T4 user profile to integrate with EasyDiscuss.

Would like them to work side by side.

Otherwise, an administrator has to pick one of the following two options:

EasyDiscuss user profiles, or
T4 Author user profiles.

I will start with StackIdeas tomorrow and see what they have to say.

Hi
It not work for both as that override the T4 extra fields.

joecan

I consulted with StackIdeas.

They confirmed the following setup:

Enable JoomlArt Author Page plugin.
Disable StackIdeas User-Profile plugin
Now, EasyDiscuss users can still update their user profile from their EasyDiscuss Account page.

I can live with the EasyDiscuss user profile field not being on the Joomla profile page to have the great features from T4's Author Page on my website.

Please feel free to close this ticket.
